Ali for $30 a item. Those kind of prices would be nice today.

My God, The Greatest, Koufax AND Campy! Even if Roy were say 50 bucks, you could get all three icons for 100 bucks, which with inflation is only like $200 today.

This was a couple years later, in New Orleans, but the Mick's price "jumped" $6 whole bucks to $18 an auto!

The prices, and the names, my gosh. These seem to be from around 1991-1992, a couple of large scale card shows in the LA area.

It's Super Bowl Sunday, so I guess I might as well throw up some ancient (mostly football pics I just scanned).

These were taken in the summer, probably July, 1990, at the NY Giants Football training camp on the campus of FDU, Madison, NJ. We frequented there quite a bit, it was great!

QB's Phil Simms and Jeff Hostetler approaching.


Simms signing right in front of me.


Flyer of the roster signed by Phil Simms.




Giant players piled onto the back of Stephen Baker's Corvette!

And now a bunch of randoms I took from various signings back in the 90's....

Larry Bird busting through a crowd of us teenagers. How about that Co-Ed Naked shirt and rat tail!


Dan Marino signing on June 29, 1996, somewhere in Jersey! Don't ask me what I had signed there! Guy handling was named Pat.


Pavel Bure (NHL hockey) signing on June 29, 1996, somewhere in Jersey!


Franco Harris signing on June 30, 1996 somewhere in Jersey!


Mean Joe Greene signing on June 30, 1996 somewhere in Jersey!


Gene "The Mailman," one of my father's friends, with Giants QB Dave Brown.


Me having Keith Van Horn of the NJ Nets sign a basketball I guess around 1998 at the Meadowlands Sheraton. Whatever happened to him???
